Provide Students with Feedback

Most students appreciate critical assessment so they know where they stand and how they can improve. Last week we discussed adding feedback to online tests, and in this post we will explore other ways you can leave feedback in Sakai!PostEm

One of the quickest ways of providing feedback in Sakai is through the PostEm tool, which is a spreadsheet viewer that displays information privately to students. If you already maintain grades in a spreadsheet and want to display comments next to the grades, PostEm may just work perfectly for you!

Gradebook

NOTE: Comments cannot be entered in the Gradebook for Gradebook Items that are coming from Tests & Quizzes or Assignments that were not originally linked to existing Gradebook items. Comments must be added within those tools.
